A powerful, timely, and relentlessly compelling read. Hollow Fires burns brightly with Samira Ahmed’s trademark blend of thought-provoking social relevance, heartfelt coming-of-age, and whip-smart plotting.
Hollow Fires
Sabaa Tahir
With Hollow Fires, Samira Ahmed offers us an impossible-to-put-down thriller that is both spectacularly haunting and deeply thoughtful. Safiya and Jawad are not narrators we usually see, and their harrowing story is a wholly original commentary on perception, community, and the way society weighs one life against another.
